In the NBA, the Lakers have suffered three consecutive losses, and the team's situation is very bad. But as a player, James' performance is remarkable. In the past 2 games, James has scored 30+ high points, and his personal competitive form has remained good. In the case of the Lakers' lack of major generals, James played so well but could not lead the team to win, which is really quite helpless.
For James, he has no time to think about the Lakers' championship battle. In the next few games, he is about to usher in another milestone of his own. After scoring 30+ high scores in two consecutive games, James' NBA regular season total scores reached 35,894 points, just 106 points away from 36,000 points. Based on James' average of 26 points per game this season, it will take him about four games to reach that record.
Next, the Lakers' schedule is more intensive. In the next 8 days, the Lakers will play 5 games against the Spurs, Nets, Rockets, Grizzlies and Blazers. Based on James' scoring efficiency, he is likely to have his 360 million milestone in the Game against the Grizzlies on December 30. And this day happens to be James's 37th birthday.
On the NBA all-time scoring list, James is currently ranked No. 3, behind Jabbar and Mal Caron. James is currently 1,034 points away from second-placed Mar-Caron. It is still 2493 points away from the first place Jabbar. With James' competitive form this year, he is likely to overtake Karl Malone and be in second place on the all-time scoring list. As for whether he can surpass Abdul-Jabbar, it depends on James' competitive state and physical condition next season. After all, he is about to celebrate his 37th birthday on December 30th.
